Horrible food and atrocious, abusive service
Posted by Sharleen_and_Drew on 03/21/2006
QUINCY, MASSACHUSETTS -- Defensive and threatening when we called back because pizza was stale and badly burned. When we called to tell them we weren't eating it and couldn't believe they wouldn't have just thrown it out, the manager told us "if you don't want it dry, you should have ordered extra sauce" and then threatened to never deliver to our home if we called back. Called back? We called once. It says right on the box to say something if you're not satisfied. Well, I wasn't with a pizza that looked like it had been sitting out for days and delivered lukewarm and blackened. It stunk up my home for hours. I was about to throw some jeans on and complain in person about how rude they were on the phone. The only thing I said was, "It was burnt and dry so we're not actually eating it," and was about to hang up when he put me on hold and then had another defensive person bark at me. I handed the phone to my boyfriend, and he couldn't believe what a jerk the guy was to us for nothing more than saying that the pizza wasn't great and we weren't eating it.
I was so disgusted at the pizza and how we were treated that I made sure we took a photo to dissuade anyone from ordering anything this location. I have sent this to all my friends and posted it anywhere that allowed me. What's worse is I complained to their national 800 number and was contacted by Domino's Pizza Headquarters two days later, which I thought to be a bit slow... after the call and their assurance that this would be sorted out, the NEXT day, I came home to nasty note on my door from someone at Domino's (assumingly, because I have never spoken up about anything else that's pissed me off. The audacity was startling.) where I complained about and it read, "Nice house you have here, b*tch."
Can you believe it? That's an implied threat. Do yourself a favor and don't complain because the people in these jobs clearly have a vendetta against all of society... especially those who ask remind them to, oh, I don't know... do their f***ing job properly.

Take the money and not another pizza. Something's being left out here. If you feel that the note was a threat then call the police and their corporate headquarters. Unreal!

Same situation. However, when I called, they handled it professionally and sent me a coupon for a "freebie" which was much better!

I have never had a problem, except I can't order online to my local store. They're very courteous to me.
I'm sorry they were rude to you, but I must admit it's a little hard to swallow that even the 800 number people would have been attacking you from the start.
Posted by eho on 2010-09-13:
Yes, I fear when I complaint to the manager or anyone at the store something like that will happened especially if I order with them the next time they may step, spit, and dirty my food. That why I do not want to call the store to complaint. I had complaint once about the spicy food that no one at home could not eat and I even have requested online and also called them to make sure it not spicy at all before they make it. Guess what they make it spicy with the hot sauce and when I call the store, they said it was the new robust sauce so I no longer ordered the sauce anymore and the problem was solved although I do not got the new replacable pizza but at least no more spice food.
O' yeah the pizza always burn like 2 inches from the crust with the hand tossed style even with extra sauces medium or large make no difference but large always look much better than the medium which look like mostly crusted pizza with fewer topping than regular medium pizza order elsewhere.
I always order extra sauce because it free. Some store give way too much sauces and some like regular size sauce and so more sauces does not make no difference if pizza over burn are not. I usually order the deep dish and the deep dish pizza are not over burn like the hand tossed one.
What happened to dominos pizza reward? All my points is all gone along with the pizza history and the websites no longer show redeeming pizza reward points as they upgraded there website. It sad too because I almost quality for a free large one topping pizza. Making me sad and upset that I no longer wanted to order from dominos pizza again. There was no notifaction of anything about the pizza reward program being ended otherwise I would have gotten my free chicken wings and bread sticks before my points expired.
Another things Many of Domino's Pizza stores does not open for the holiday like labor day so about all the holiday when I craving for pizzas I always had to order pizzas else. So, if you plan to have pizza for the holiday make sure you have another pizza delivery numbers.
I always email my complaints to corporate or call the 1-800# because it usually always a waste of time complainting to store manager. I know before I used to work in the well known fast food restaurant and I know much about how to deal with customers.

Domino's Attitude Sucks!
Posted by Msuazo on 11/13/2010
SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO -- We called and ordered the family two pizzas to be delivered. When the order was read back to me on the phone it was correct: 1 vegetarian (we chose our toppings), 1 pepperoni/canadian bacon, $14 and some change. I questioned for two pizzas? His reply was yes. Okay we suspected that was for one pizza and that they would figure it out by the time they delivered them.
The delivery came, and there was only one pizza! The poor delivery guy's reply was "they only gave me one." It was the adult pizza and the children had none. I called Domino's and explained what had happened. The employee who answered said "I see your order here, two pizzas. Let me get a manager. I repeated the dilemma when the manager JUSTIN replied "I talked with the employee and he said you only ordered one. I explained that the order had been read back to me when it was placed. I told him I didn't want to argue, I just wanted the kids to get their pizza and that the other was getting cold while I waited 10 minutes for him to get to the phone. He said "I suggest you go eat your pizza then. We can deliver your other one but you have to pay for it." -NOT ONCE DID THEY APOLOGIZE FOR THEIR MISTAKE. An I'm sorry for the inconvenience, or offer any other solution that did not come with an attitude, we would have settled for a late pizza (and would have happily paid), When I told JUSTIN we would never go to his establishment again he said "That's fine."
After getting off the phone disappointed in his customer service we finally sat down to eat our pizza, but to our surprise it wasn't even the pizza we ordered! I called back to Domino's and asked for the name and number to someone other then Justin with whom I could file a complaint, the employee said Justin was the only person there to talk to, I asked for the owner's info or head of Domino's. Justen got back on the line and repeated that he was in charge, that they were a franchise didn't answer to anyone! I was surprised he was in charge (he sounded like he was all of twelve years old) and I asked, "you're the boss?" He said "pretty much, I'm the owners son and I don't have time to deal with you" and hung up on me! Good job Domino's! I guess any moron and his son can own a Domino's. By the way this domino's is in Santa Fe, NM on Zaferano Dr.

Don't let them kid you. They may be a franchise but they do have to answer to headquarters, especially in relation to customer complaints.

I'm sorry this happened to you. I would register a complaint, and move on as quickly as possible to another establishment. These dolts aren't worth any more of your time or money.
Posted by Venice09 on 2010-11-13:
"I'm the owners son and I don't have time to deal with you"
That explains it. I wonder if daddy knows how his son treats the customers. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the father is unaware of this son's attitude and behavior. I would try to get in touch with the owner and fill him in on what took place. The worst that can happen is that the dad is as big a jerk as the son. But then you'll definitely know to write them off.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-11-13:
He was ignored as a child and now wants to rebel against his father by ruining his business. Surely that must be it. Or, he treats customers as he has seen his father always handle things. Either way, they carry the Dominos name (not Justin's) and I am sure corporate would be interested in hearing that they don't feel they need to answer to anyone. File a complaint.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-11-14:
Or the little brat is a liar, and just trying to make himself look good. I would definitely file a complaint with headquarters. At least the issue will be addressed. That other pizza should have been free, but seems to me theres a bunch of hot-heads working there that think they own the joint.
Posted by Ytropious on 2010-11-14:
So the order was wrong all along and they just got mixed up? That sucks. As for complaining about the pizza they DID bring getting cold, well I agree with Justin, that's a little much. You should have just started eating it instead of complaining it was getting cold while you were complaining about the second pizza. If you had, you would have realized it was the wrong pizza in the first place.
Posted by Venice09 on 2010-11-14:
I agree that they should have checked the pizza before calling, but I understand why the OP made the call before eating. Hungry kids!!
Posted by moonshimmer18 on 2013-07-04:
Every franchise has to answer to corporate because franchise 'borrows' the corporate name.

Most places like that don't accept anything larger than a $20 for reasons of they simply don't have the change for it. It usually states so somewhere on or around the register... even on the door, as you enter. Or on the side beside the door.
Not all places have the same rules or policies.
What does that have to do with them not taking a $100 dollar bill?
Posted by momsey on 2010-01-08:
Did they explain why they couldn't take a $100 bill? They probably didn't have change for it, as bearkat suggested.
How did they know he had a $100 bill to pay with without knowing what he was ordering? Did he march in waving his Benjamin in the air?
There's always debit or credit cards. It's annoying and frustrating when you can't pay the way you want, but there are usually alternatives and I don't see it as a reason to never go there again.

Lots of food places don't take large bills. The Subway I go to doesn't take anything larger than a $20
Posted by Skye on 2010-01-08:
Like the others have said, most places will not take such a large bill. But just because they could not take his $100.00 bill, is really a silly reason never to go there again. Now you know this, you can have smaller bills for the future to pay for your pizza.
Don't sweat the small stuff. Think of how many people/families wish they had that money at this very moment.
Posted by Ben There on 2010-01-08:
It only takes a business once to get stung by a $100 counterfeit bill to put this policy in place. Counterfeits are rarely passed through banks or stores that are used to seeing lots of big bills. They hit places with employees not used to dealing with $100s regularly and that sell cheap stuff. Buy a $10 pizza and walk away with $90s in real money. Plus the change issue is a big deal for places that do a lot of business after the banks are closed.
Posted by Starlord on 2010-01-08:
First off, your caplock key is stuck. Secondly, there are reasons fast food joints don't take large bills. As a former peace officer I will give you two. 1. You are woeking and a guy comes and asks if you can take a hundred, he is holeding a hundred, so you say sure. Next thing, you are looking down the barrel of a firearm, and he is telling you to put all the money and your wallet in a bag. 2. a guy comes in and asks if you can handle a hundred. you say sure, and he orders about $40 worth of food. Next day, you get called into the bosses office and there are two police detectives there, wanting to know about the hundred dollar bill that is counterfeit. You may or may not be fired for taking that large a bill. Sure, it is inconvenient, but as I have said about security measures in stores, you have no one to blame but the criminals who make it hard on everyone.
Posted by Ytropious on 2010-01-08:
But you act like he flashed the hundred first. The natural order is place order then pay. Sounds like he DIDN'T order 60 dollars worth of food, so so much for your theory.
Posted by zeldaz on 2010-05-23:
Not all people use credit cards! Some actually use cash - even in this day and age. Sometimes I am stuck with a hundred dollar bill and have to use it somewhere. There are pens that stores use to check for counterfeit money. What does a recession have to do with a hundred dollar bill? Think hard... would you want to lose out on a large sale in this economy? Before the store said no, perhaps they should have heard the order and realized how large it was.

Pizza Size Ripoff
Posted by Curious3210 on 01/08/2010
Havent ordered a pizza from Dominos in a while so I figured last night I would give them a try over Papa Johns. Ordered a large pizza with everything and then proceed to go pick it up. When I was handed the box I did a double-take as the box seemed to tiny to contain a large pizza. If it hadn't been for the fact the back of the box said large I would have disputed the pizza size. Regardless, I exit the store and hope in the car only for my 12 year old daughter to question the size of the pizza so at that point I knew I wasn't loosing my mind. We get the pizza home and open the box, mind you there was only 3 people eating a large pizza, only to find a little 8 slice pizza! Needless to say we ended up making something extra to fill our bellies. So we find they now have an extra large. Could this be the old large? Well I guess I will never find out because I refuse order from them again.

The bigger question is whether the new crust, better sauce, and new types of cheese actually make Domino's taste better.
Nutritionally speaking, 8 pieces is plenty of food for 2 adults and a kid.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-08:
I ordered a couple last weekend. While not exactly gourmet, they are 1000% better than before.
Posted by jktshff1 on 2010-01-08:
Nutritionally speaking, a pair of dirty socks would probably be more nutritional than a take out pizza.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-08:
Actually Jkt, the right pizza can be pretty healthy. For instance, a vegetarian pizza gives healthy amounts of at least 3 of the major food groups.
Posted by Skye on 2010-01-08:
Oh yea Ken, thats so true. I love a good veggie pizza. Pizza is a more healthy choice, depending on what you put on it, then a burger, fries and a shake.
I can understand the OP's complaint. Seems like these days, you pay more and get less on lots of items. I buy a certain brand of yogurt, and they went from 8oz containers, down to 6oz and still kept the same price.
Posted by snowmanvt on 2010-01-08:
Check out mouseprint.org for many examples of downsizing and hidden conditions and fees. It is a fun site.
Posted by jktshff1 on 2010-01-08:
I agree, but you ain't gonna find that in any ff take out I know.
Ya have to make it yourself. Do a quick look at the stuff that goes in their sauces.
I started looking at labels when I had my heart and leg problems and the Dr wanted to put me on a bunch of medicine. Changed my diet, read labels, only take and aspirin a day and celebrex for authur. No problems.
They are killing us with the stuff they put in our foods.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-08:
You know, I feel for this OP. I remember when a LARGE pizza was actually a LARGE. It seems like all these pizza chains are getting ksimpier and skimpier on the sizes AND the toppings. I remember when a Medium was a medium, and a large was a large. Now these chains have small, medium, large, and extra large. So now the medium is a small, the large is a medium, and the extra large is a large. Its BS. I go to a local pizza shop down the road from me. When i ask for a large, I get a LARGE. and normally OVER loaded with toppings where as I can't actually count. YOu order from these chains, I can actually count the amount of topping they put on my pizza. I think they literally make the cooks count out how much topping goes on a pizza. Its sad.
Posted by Skye on 2010-01-08:
Chick Fil A, one of the best and healthiest fast food choices, and actually tastes pretty good.
Posted by Skye on 2010-01-08:
jkt, thats great news. Some change in eating habits, reading labels can really make a whole lot of difference on everyone's health. It's never to early or late to start eating better.
Posted by goduke on 2010-01-08:
Exactly, Tennboy. Avoid the chains, go local. I've got a place down the street that I use for pizza on those occasions I get it. It's some of the best pizza I've ever had, and their employees seem to really enjoy their job.
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-08:
The funniest thing about this post, if there is a Papa John's banner ad right above this complaint. TOO funny.
Posted by Starlord on 2010-01-08:
Like I always say, you are going to the wrong papa. If you have one near you, try Papa Murphy's. Two failing pizza outfits merged to form Papa Murphy's and they hit on success. They don't have to keep humonous pizza ovens running all day, so thaey can afford to buy the best toppings as Papa John's claims to do. They build your pizza right in front of you and wrap it in plastic with the baking instructions. You take it home and bake it in your own oven, and you have hot, delicious pizza. Outstanding!
Posted by Anonymous on 2010-01-08:
I agree Star, and in my experience you need two large pizzas with even two adults.
To the OP: May I suggest Country Buffet?
Posted by PepperElf on 2010-01-08:
If i'm not mistaken - at least on the domino's online site
they actually list the diameter of the pizza

An Employee's Point Of View
Posted by MonkeyHead on 03/20/2009
ARKANSAS -- First off let me explain that it is very late and that I will most likely make spelling errors. I apologize.
Now to get to what I have to say. I currently work at a Domino's Pizza. I have read a lot of complaints about Domino's Pizza from many sites. To be totally honest, most are completely understandable and reasonable. I am just here to offer an observation or three from the other side of the counter. I do not claim to represent Domino's. I speak for myself.
One of the most common complaints is about rude employees/managers. These complaints are pretty fair. The major problem is that you are speaking to a person who makes minimum wage, or close enough to it. The threat of being fired isn't really all that troubling when you make minimum wage. Having no benefits combined with low pay gives somebody with a bad attitude a LOT of freedom. They can pretty much do whatever they want with no real consequences. Sure they know they can be fired. So they just go get another job the next day. Even in a bad economy, there's always minimum wage jobs available. I see it all the time. You combine low pay with a bunch of kids, and they are kids with little to no bills, and throw in a splash of poor work ethics and you will get some terrible service. I am not attempting to excuse anyone's sorry customer service, I am simply trying to illuminate the why of it.
Another complaint is about the poor delivery times. I hear it all the time. To be honest, I have had my share of delivery's that were late. This one is a bit tricky. If the phones keep ringing, the pizzas get delayed because, and I kid you not on this one, Domino's number one priority is to answer the phones. That is no exaggeration. It is in the employee handbook and is in practice in stores. So if the phone keeps ringing, it takes longer and longer and longer just to start making the first pizza from the first order. Then there is traffic, car accidents, trains, funeral processions, power outages, roadwork, etc. to consider. I didn't mention weather because most people realize that if it's snowing or raining, the driver is going to take longer. With all this to consider, you might only be 5 minutes away, but it could still take 45 minutes to get to you. Sometimes the only thing the driver can do is apologize. I realize that is not really good enough when the entire purpose of the business is customer satisfaction, but again I am simply trying to illuminate the why of it.
Quality of the product rounds out the top 3 of complaints. Again, this is a totally reasonable complaint. I know that in my store, much of our equipment was new when Carter was president. Yes, Carter, I am truly not joking here, A stove that has been running at 500 degrees for 7 days a week, 12-13 hours a day, 363 days of the year (closed Thanksgiving and Christmas), simply stops cooking properly. The cooler in the back, the makeline up front (the "cold" area we make all the pizzas at), and the AC are all in similar condition. The customer deserves better then this, but again I am simply trying to illuminate the why of it.
I think that is enough for now. I wish all of you the best of luck in your pursuit of a quality product, at a fair price, from a courteous staff.
Domino's would do well to remember the words of Earl Nightingale ~ We will receive not what we idly wish for but what we justly earn. Our rewards will always be in exact proportion to our service.

Great post..vh
This country has an issue with parents not teaching and training their young ones that they are going to loose, it ain't always gonna go their way, nobody owes them anything and you have to work for what you need or want. Morals and integrity that's what is lacking and the parent(s) are to blame.
Posted by jr on 2012-05-22:
You speak the very true. Im a Shift Manager at a Domino's pizza in California. Most of the blame should also go to the franchise owner. They think they know more than the people who built the business (corporate). And choose too cut corners to make an xtra buck. For example our franchise owner chargers $2.50 Delivery. But only gives the drivers $1.25, and thats with gas at $4.25 a gallon. He's profiting from the employees. Plus drivers that been their 20 years get paid minumum wage......Corporate needs to help us
Posted by fh on 2012-12-04:
I. Work for dominos also..gotta agree with jr..corporate is way different than franchise...where I work.the driver gets 1.75 from 3.00 from delivery charge..drivers use their own vehicle and gas. Now if we go out of town fro a delivery its 3.75 for the driver, but on a delivery from 10 to 13 miles away... and a lot of the deliveries in this area are out of town. I'm just saying that..like corporate make all this rules or handbooks that need to done by the book..they should also make a handbook or rules for the franchise owners about treating their employees like human beings..because in corporate..employees do get benefits and vacations and a lot more...in franchise, u don't get shit and if u complain, more than likely..u ll be fire the next day..because to these franchises we are expendable

HAMDEN, CONNECTICUT -- Ever since the 799 carryout deal has been playing in Connecticut there is no dominos that will actually honor that commercial stop showing the commercial because it's just a joke I've called every dominos in my area and outside of my area just to pick up a pizza there are other local restaurants that don't have that special deal but their pizza is also good I've always loved Domino's Pizza but because I can't participate in the special offer I haven't bought a pizza from them in over a year's participation variable for dominos or do you not enforce it I would love to buy a large topping pizza for 799 but I can't can someone rectify this or should I still shop for pizza at local restaurants I'm not the only one that goes through this either I live in a complex words hundreds of people we all live close to dominos but no one buys their food that's business out the door because the manager doesn't want to honor in the commercial thank you for your time

Not all franchises participate, if all the Dominos franchises in your area are owned by the same person or group, then it wouldn't be surprising for all of them to have the policies regarding this sort of thing. I find it funny that you mention that you've always loved Dominos, but apparently you don't love them enough to pay the non-sale price.

No Gloves When Handling Pizza Toppings
Posted by Lindasam6591 on 11/09/2013
There were no gloves on these peoples bare hands. Wiping there bare hands on their aprons then handling money then going right back to work on making pizzas. Hat flipping around food several times. Not covering their mouths when sneezing just letting it all fly all over the place. Not making sure the customers get the right orders.

Burnt Disgusting Pizza Not Once but Twice
Posted by Mybestisyet2come on 11/08/2013
ATLANTIC CITY, NEW JERSEY -- My god-daughter wanted Dominos Pizza so I ordered a large pizza with sausage and bacon as toppings, 8 boneless PCS of chicken and a 2 liter sprite. The order came to $20.00 and came in about 40 min. completely BURNT!! I found the pizza to be uneatable.
I called to complain and was told by management that, that was how that style of pizza ( pan pizza in the black box) was normally fixed. I told him that that was not true because I have had this style before. He sound like I irritated him and said ok, ok, I will send you another one I said fine thank you.
SADLY I have to complain that, that when that pizza arrived to my home I in fact returned the original uneaten pizza and received what I thought would be a better made pizza. To my surprise it too was also completely BURNT! as well. I just gave up because I had to feed my 12 year old god-daughter who had waited at this point over an hour to eat.
I am very disappointed and will NEVER order pizza from Dominos again. I didn't feel this issue would be solved by way of management at the Atlantic City Store after speaking to him earlier. so I decided to contact the home office of Dominos.

Did It Get the Special in the Flyer

I went to get the special 1mediun pizza and 16 bites of bread for $9.99 and the manager told me that the code didn't work and took the flier from [me]. So rude and told me if you want it you have to pay regular price. It is not my fault that the code on the coupon didn't work,,.

No Gloves Worn to Make Pizza
Posted by Rv11red on 11/02/2013
ESPANOLA, NEW MEXICO -- I went to get a pizza and watched the guys make the pizzas and scratch their faces and pick @ their noses and then answer the phone and handle money and then go back and finish making pizzas. No gloves were worn and no hands were washed. I asked about all of this and one told me that all germs die in the hot ovens. He said the health department approves of all of this and their district manager approves also. I left. I won't be back there anymore.

I've been to Australia twice so far, but according to my father I've never actually seen it. He made this observation at the home of my cousin Joan, whom he and I visited just before Christmas last year, and it came on the heels of an equally aggressive comment. "Well," he said, "David's a better reader than he is a writer." This from someone who hasn't opened a book since "Dave Stockton's Putt to Win," in 1996. He's never been to Australia, either. Never even come close.
"No matter," he told me. "In order to see the country, you have to see the countryside, and you've only been to Sydney."
"And Melbourne. And Brisbane," I said. "And I have too gone into the country."
"Like hell you have."
"All right," I said. "Let's get Hugh on the phone. He'll tell you. He'll even send you pictures."
Joan and her family live in Binghamton, New York. They don't see my father and me that often, so it was pretty lousy to sit at their table, he and I bickering like an old married couple. Ashamed by the bad impression we were making, I dropped the countryside business, and as my dad moved on to other people's shortcomings I thought back to the previous summer, and my twenty-three-hour flight from London to Sydney. I was in Australia on business, and because someone else was paying for the ticket, and it would be possible to stop in Japan on the way home, Hugh joined me. This is not to put Australia down, but he'd already gone once before. Then, too, spend that much time on a plane and you're entitled to a whole new world when you step off at the other end—the planet Mercury, say, or, at the very least, Mexico City. For an American, though, Australia seems pretty familiar: same wide streets, same office towers. It's Canada in a thong, or that's the initial impression.
I hate to admit it, but my dad was right about the countryside. Hugh and I didn't see much of it, but we wouldn't have seen anything were it not for a woman named Pat, who was born in Melbourne and has lived there for most of her life. We'd met her a few years earlier, in Paris, where she'd come to spend a mid-July vacation. Over drinks in our living room, her face dewed with sweat, she taught us the term "shout," as in "I'm shouting lunch." This means that you're treating, and that you don't want any lip about it. "You can also say, 'It's my shout,' or, 'I'll shout the next round,' " she told us.
We kept in touch after her visit, and when my work was done, and I was given a day and a half to spend as I liked, Pat offered herself as a guide. On that first afternoon, she showed us around Melbourne, and shouted coffee. The following morning, she picked us up at our hotel, and drove us into what she called "the bush." I expected a wasteland of dust and human bones, but it was nothing like that. When Australians say "the bush," they mean the woods. The forest.
First, though, we had to get out of Melbourne, and drive beyond the seemingly endless suburbs. It was August, the dead of winter, and so we had the windows rolled up. The homes we passed were made of wood, many with high fences around the back yards. They didn't look exactly like American houses, but I couldn't quite identify the difference. Was it the roofs? I wondered. The siding? Pat was driving, and as we passed the turnoff for a shopping center she invited us to picture a four-burner stove.
"Gas or electric?" Hugh asked, and she said that it didn't matter.
This was not a real stove but a symbolic one, used to prove a point at a management seminar she'd once attended. "One burner represents your family, one is your friends, the third is your health, and the fourth is your work." The gist, she said, was that in order to be successful you have to cut off one of your burners. And in order to be really successful you have to cut off two.
Pat has her own business, a good one that's allowing her to retire at fifty-five. She owns three houses, and two cars, but, even without the stuff, she seems like a genuinely happy person. And that alone constitutes success.
I asked which two burners she had cut off, and she said that the first to go had been family. After that, she switched off her health. "How about you?"
I thought for a moment, and said that I'd cut off my friends. "It's nothing to be proud of, but after meeting Hugh I quit making an effort."
"And what else?" she asked.
"Health, I guess."
Hugh's answer was work.
"Just work," he said.
I asked Pat why she'd cut off her family, and with no trace of bitterness she talked about her parents, both severe alcoholics. They drank away their jobs and credit, and because they were broke they moved a lot, most often in the middle of the night. This made it hard to have a pet, though for a short time Pat and her sister managed to own a sheep. It was an old, beat-up ram they named Mr. Preston. "He was lovely and good-natured, until my father sent him off to be shorn," Pat said. "When he returned, there were bald patches and horrible deep cuts, like stab wounds, in his skin. Then we moved to an apartment, and had to get rid of him." She looked at her hands on the steering wheel. "Poor old Mr. Preston. I hadn't thought about him in years."

Police probe fire at Rochester community center
"The fire was a set fire," Bellio said. He said someone set fire to a wall-mounted soap dispenser in a second-floor bathroom, causing alarms to sound around 11:30 a.m.
The former high school, located at 150 Wakefield St. on Route 125, houses the city's recreation department and economic development personnel as well as the school superintendent's office, a local food pantry, a driving school and other agencies.
Bellio said he's been unable to determine whether the soap was alcohol-based, which could contribute to the fire.
The wall was concrete block, and Bellio said the dispenser burned and melted on the floor.
Bellio said the smoke damage was contained to the bathroom for the most part, even though thick, black smoke filled the length of the second-floor hallway, which runs through the center of the building.
As the building was quickly evacuated, Bellio said no one was injured.

Atlanta >Restaurants > Fire of Brazil - Downtown
218 Peachtree St NW, Atlanta, GA | Directions 3030333.759876 -84.388187

Neighborhoods: Downtown, Northeast, Northeast
Never again – My wife and I always love to eat at Fogo when in Atlanta, but decided to try Fire of Brazil - Downtown. What a mistake! The meat that they actually had available was tasteless. There were no refills without constantly requested them and it took a good 25 minutes for them to bring our sides. I regret we talked our good friends into eating with us. I had a total of 5 meat selections, well 6 if you include the pineapple. All in all we were very dissatisfied with the dining experience and regret I actully paid good money for nothing. Do yourself a favor and skip this establishment.
We left disappointed – My first Fire of Brazil experience was hyped up by my dining companions who had been to the old Nashville location several times and wanted to go to the Atlanta location since the Nashville one closed. We all left disappointed.
All the beef selections were VERY rare. Maybe they were intended to be garlicy, but my goodness, I would like to taste some of the beef too, not just garlic. Some of the cuts were excellent (lamb, bacon wrapped chicken, sausage, pork loin, pineapple), the filet was probably the best of the beef selections, but still just mediocre. I think every third beef offering that came to our table was flank steak (which was nearly inedible it was so rare, tough, and poorly seasoned).
Fire of Brazil is a good for experiencing a Brazilian steakhouse, but if you are going to spend $50/person for a meal, there are much better choices available.
Think Twice – My husband and I are fans of Brazilian Steakhouse. We eat at Fogo De Chao all the time. We tried Fire of Brazil for the first time this weekend and it was horrible. It is only about nine dollars cheaper per person than Fogo De Chao but no where near as good. The salad bar had no where near the amount of choices and what was there was not fresh. The meats were cold, very bland, and very, very overcooked. So overcooked they were dry and very chewy. When we talked to somewhen about the meats being so overcooked we couldn't even cut them with our knives he said to just let the server know what kind of cut you would prefer. When we tried that asking for a medium cut, we ended up getting rare!. The servers were unprofessional in there service so when they cut the rare meat at our table my blouse was splashed with rare meat liquid (if you know what I mean). The servers were obviously not trained very well in knowing the different temperatures and cuts of meat. The sausage was cold and tough, so was the ham. The service was bad with empty drink glasses and no refills on bread or sides even thought the restaurant was nearly emplty. We also had difficulty understanding the servers because they did not speak very good english and communicate very easily. We have never had that problem at Fogo De Chao, everyone there is very well trained and it is the best meats and salads you will every eat. Don't waste your time or money with Fire of Brazil the nine dollars isn't worth the difference between bad and really great, go to Fogo De Chao. We will never go back.
Convenient location – We stopped by this location on a whim. We were downtown during the ACC tournament/Elton John/Billy Joel concert, so most places were packed. Fire of Brazil had seating. My wife and I found it to be very tasty, the service was excellent and it was reasonably priced. I've read reviews about overcooked meats and inattentative service...I thought they had a good selection of meats at various levels (I like mine rare/my wife wants well done). We were both able to get what we wanted when we wanted it. Overall, fine dining experience.
Worth one visit but not a return – The Bad: the wait staff is not very attentive. The bar and drink selections are minimal. My wife ordered a white Zinfandel and got a chardonay. The good: the meat selections are varied and the style of dining allows you to try meats that you would not normally order. I found out that I enjoyed flank steak better than filet minon. The flan was very good for dessert.
Overcooked bland meat, mediocre salad bar, terrible papaya cream! – Sadly, my former favorite Brazilian steakhouse Caro de Boi has closed, so my friends and I thought we'd give this place a try. We were VERY disappointed! The first meats we got were overcooked (very well done!), and after asking several different people we finally got them to bring some that was more rare - it was in fact nearly raw, and very bland. The only exception was the turkey, which was quite tasty. Aside from the marinated brussels sprouts which were very tasty, the salad bar selections were also very bland and uninteresting. We were brought bread which I was expecting to be the usual basket of cheenies which are made from yucca flour, but instead got a wheat based substitute which since I am wheat intolerant was another disappointment. After the meal we decided to try dessert since they had our favorite papaya cream on the menu. This was the worst part of the whole experience! It looked beautiful.. but whatever chambord substitute was poured over the cream had spoiled and as we took our first bite it began to curdle the cream!! Needless to say this was sent back. Overall the experience was very disappointing and I will not be going back!
An all-you-can-eat meat palace gives the touristy part of Peachtree a little international flair. – In Short
Classy carnivores feast at this traditional Brazilian eatery that features a menu of succulently seared treats served by meat-slinging gauchos in traditional attire. While not as well-regarded as other churrascarias in the city, the flesh selection holds its own, and the bill of fare includes the usual side suspects and a stocked salad bar. The meaty menu has some flourishes and features selections such as picanha, rump steak with garlic and black pepper; alcatra, tender top sirloin; bacon-wrapped filet mignon; as well as pork, chicken and lamb entrees. A vintage vino pairs nice with the international menu, or rock the culture card with a brazen Brazilian caipirinha. If you can stomach it, a scrumptious assortment of desserts adds just the right amount of sweetness to this feast.
Authentic Brazilain Churrascuria! – Outstanding choice of atmosphere-- either within the main floor of the restaurant or the private area in the back. Excellent service with wait staff and bartender going out of their way to make you feel comfortable and welcomed. Brazilian salad bar was excellent, and the gauchos serving the churrascaria meats tableside were prompt and attentive. We visited on two separate nights (on the weekend and during the week), and each time we were greeted warmly, provided exceptional service, and had a bartender and wait staff who were comfortable and confident in their skills of their job. Highly recommend. Will definitley return. Never experienced a traditional Brazilian Churrascaria? Fire of Brazil is an authentic cultural experience you don't want to miss!
Bad service – I chose to suprise my wife for her birthday and stop in let her enjoy the great food and service that a Brazilian steak house has to offer. I have enjoyed Brazilian steak house experiences in Chicago and Las Vegas. I didn't enjoy the same experience here. We did enjoy the salad bar and the choices that were on it. I told my wife to only have a little salad, so that she could try and enjoy all the meats. We flipped over our card to start having meat served to us. After sitting and waiting patiently, someone noticed that we were not getting any service. I noticed them having the gauchos to start serving us. I didn't mention our waitress because, she wasn't around. Our glasses were empty and no meat was being served. Then the meat started arriving. It was such a fast pace parade of gauchos, that our plates were filled with meats that we hadn't sampled and they were still coming. One of the gauchos noticed our problem and politely told us that if we flipped the card back over, they would give us a break. Now the moment that we waited for, lots of meat to try and time to try it. We found that the sausage was dried up, the garlic seasoned beef was over cooked and that several other meats were dry. I understand that there is a difference in cooked meat over and open fire but this was just dry and overcooked. We decided to turn over our cards and try this again, this time we were noticed quicker and the meats began to come. Some of the meats were a little better. After trying the salad bar and the meats ( good or not ) we were now full and aggravated, so we decided to call it a day. This experience was not what I had planned for my wife. I drove 80 miles back home appoligizing to my wife for the dinner. There was other small problems so I decided to send an email out to Fire of Brazil. Their respose wasn't much better. I will try again at a different Brazilian steak house, maybe you can read that review. If you don't mind spending $100 on a great salad bar enjoy. Not Happy
Gaucho's With Skewers of Meat! And A Salad Bar, Of All Salad Bars! – A good friend took me here a couple of weeks ago, for my birthday. It's in the former location of the old Planet Hollywood, at the intersection of P'tree and International, Downtown. And how great to see the return of Downtown dining. The gauchos serving all these Brazilian cuts of meat non-stop is amazing. But what was really amazing, was the starter of the Salad Bar. We could have made a meal of it alone. In fact we are going to come back for it, just for lunch. Some of the highlights were the Mango/Crab Salad, the Marinated Portobello Mushroom Salad, Marinated Snow Pea Salad w/Thai Chili. The Pop-Over Dinner Rolls with Cheese, were to die for. Also on the salad bar was a whole Salmon in Cream Sauce w/Mussesl & Shrimp. Favorite meat was the Pork Loin with a Parmesean Crust. Service was excellent, even with the language barrier! Just wonderful!

What was going on here?
Evolution, the band members told me later. They recently recorded demos for their next album, which will be made this winter with indie rock producer Howard Bilerman, a former member of Arcade Fire.
"I know, in general, we receive a love 'em or hate 'em response from soul people, but the next album will definitely split people," said Rosenstein. "We are definitely going to hear people say, 'We knew all along they weren't really into soul music!'" Later, when I asked them about the sound-checked Eno song, they said they didn't really remember.
But that's definitely the kind of music they grew up listening to.
Brooks — who actually lives in Uptown and whose full name is Jayson Kodi Gaucho Adolfo Brooks — told me he considered answering my questions in character, playing "JC Brooks," outsized soul performer. Lies? I asked. "Not outright lies," he said, "just small embellishments of truth — minor deviations from truth."
For instance, Brooks was going to say he spent his summers communing with soul music in the South. The truth is, he grew up a shy kid in Camden, N.J., and occasionally visited cousins in the South. Though his mother sang in bands and he eventually acquired her taste for Anita Baker and Steely Dan, his own taste veered more to Stone Temple Pilots than Sam Cooke. He studied theater at Point Park University in Pittsburgh, moved to Chicago to become a stage actor, landed a few semi-major parts in Porchlight Music Theatre's productions of "It's a Wonderful Life" and "Ragtime," and worked for a while at a talent agency.
The members of Uptown Sound are all in their 30s. Most have listened to a fair amount of vintage soul. But Bungeroth said they mostly talked about the Clash at their first rehearsal. Brooks spent months watching soul concerts on DVD and clips of Otis Redding and Wilson Pickett on YouTube, "using it as a jumping-off to create a persona." (Asked why the band isn't JK Brooks and the Uptown Sound, considering his actual name begins Jayson Kodi, he said: "We didn't want anyone to think JK Brooks and the Harry Potter Revue or something.")
Their timing was good.
Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, Fitz and the Tantrums, Amy Winehouse — a retro-soul wave was happening. On the strength of their live act, the Uptown Sound rode it for a couple of years. Then in 2009, while tooling around somewhat on Ciba's advice, the band recorded a cover of a non-soul song. It was going be either a Wilco song or the Smiths' "This Charming Man."
"It wasn't calculated," Taylor said, "but we recognized it would be a good move." The rest is a laughably coincidental series of happy occurrences: Wilco saw a YouTube clip of the Uptown Sound performing the song at a Chicago street fair. Jeff Tweedy sat in at a show. Wilco invited them to play its Solid Sound Festival in New England. Then they met Emanuel at a Tweedy benefit performance.
"Rahm was like, 'I really want you guys to play the inauguration for me,'" Bungeroth recalled. "So Ben pointed out he hadn't been elected yet, and Rahm kind of shrugged that off — like, you know, oh, details!"
The trouble, however, with building a reputation as a smoking 21st-century impression of a '60s soul band is that, well, it's a very specific image. Rob Miller at Bloodshot said one of the reasons they were circling each other for months before committing was that his label is well known as a home of Americana and old sounds, and the Uptown Sound "wanted to be sure there was room to progress." Their manager, Hillel Frankel, who also manages Poi Dog Pondering, said the "goal is to be less of a concept because the music is getting more interesting."
Bungeroth put it better:
"We like soul. But we don't want to give the illusion we grew up in the civil rights movement." Besides, he said, '70s progressive punks Television are a bigger influence. Favorite guitarist? The Smiths' Johnny Marr.
As for the missing Brooks: He was playing kickball.
When he returned, he ducked into a trailer, emerging a few moments later with his pompadour askew — less Elvis, more Grace Jones. As the band rode to the stage in golf carts, he was quiet. He is quiet.
"He brings down the house," said Walter Stearns, former artistic director of the Porchlight (now executive director of the Mercury Theater). "But he's like a different person off the stage. It's like he's playing a role."
It's exactly like that.
But a convincing role. The band's Lollapalooza moment was modest — maybe 500 people. But many knew the lyrics. When Brooks asked, "Can I get an amen?" the roar was loud. "I don't have to ask twice," he said.
When the set was over 45 minutes later, the temperature, at 12:45 p.m., was in the 90s. The Uptown Sound was slick with sweat — everyone except the outsized man who had swiveled and spun for the entire show. Brooks, in tight tan chinos, a white shirt and black boots, looked miraculously untouched by moisture. His white shirt — the kind of conservative button-down number you imagine famous authors wearing on safari — appeared to be as dry as when he arrived. Applause still rippling, he retreated to his golf cart, stepping around wires and equipment. Then he tugged at his shirt and the sweat cascaded off. The material was so saturated not an inch of shirt was untouched.
"It's all an illusion," he laughed. "I am soaked to the bone!"

LeBron James reportedly mulling Magic Johnson's $1M dunk contest offer
LeBron James responded to Magic Johnson's $1-million offer to participate in the NBA's Slam Dunk Contest with a simple answer: "Tell him I'll get back to him," he told ESPN's Lisa Salters before Sunday's Heat-Knicks game in New York.
And while Johnson's offer, made during ESPN's pregame telecast on Friday, gives him added incentive to participate, James said he thinks about participating every year.
The three-time MVP has also already turned down large cash offers from sponsors to participate in the past, according to ESPN.com's Brian Windhorst.
LeBron leads league in flirting with dunk contest & will probably never do it. FYI he's been offered large $$ by sponsors in past & said no.—
Brian Windhorst (@WindhorstESPN) March 03, 2013
Public pressure for James to take part in the dunk contest has mounted each year and reached a peak recently, as his pregame dunk routine has spawned viral videos after he said he was "very close" to participating in Houston last month.
"I was very close," he said. "I was very close to getting into the dunk contest, man. For me, I've always been an in-game dunker, man. When you've got to be in the dunk contest, you've got to be creative, figure out ways to do something that no one has done in the dunk contest. I couldn't figure that out. I couldn't figure that out. I was entertained by being in the three-point contest, too."

Great news for those M5 and M6 owners affected by the faulty oil pump recall. Less than two weeks after the recall was announced, the first oil pump replacements are underway and completed. The first M5POST member has just shared that his replacement pump is in and his M6 already on its way back to him.
The BMW M display at this year's 2012 Paris auto show featured the latest M models to be released – the F10 M5 and F12 M6 coupe. What you see is the 2013 M6 in Sakhir Orange, its launch color. The 2013 M5 wears Frozen Grey, a BMW Individual color which looked excellent under the show lights. Also on display was the M5/M6′s monster 560hp V8 twin turbo S63Tu engine.
Most of you have read about the M5, M6 and S63Tu specs repeated times already, but for reference or as a refresher, see the official info threads linked inside.
PP-Performance share with us their latest numbers achieved on their Project F10 M5. They have managed to achieve 639.7hp 824.7Nm on the 2013 M5 with the PP-Performance ECU software remap tune for the S63Tu engine, modified downpipes, mufflers by Manhart Racing, and GruppeM carbon fiber air intake system.
Check out the dyno graphs inside.
We provide you an update on the BMW M5 and M6 oil pump issue, including a preview of recall process and details. There is also a VIN number list for you to check your M5/M6 against to see if you are affected.
BMW has issued a delivery stop order on all 2013 M5 and M6 (coupe and convertible). The issue stems from a potential problem with the engine oil pump on certain S63Tu engine equipped cars. Vehicles equipped with an affected pump could experience a sudden loss of oil pressure which will result in engine damage.
BMW is recommending current M5 and M6 owners not drive the vehicle. Stay tuned for updates.
BMW M cars may have staked their reputation on their handling and overall performance package, but with the forced induction trend of the latest M models, they've become quite the straight-line monsters.
The 2013 F10 M5 with its S63Tu engine is rated at 560hp from the factory, but dynos have confirmed that this is a significantly underrated power figure. This has now also been borne out at the track.
M5POST member 2013awm5 took his M5 to the track and produced a very impressive quarter mile top run time of 11.78 @ 119mph! This was achieved with launch control and no modifications to the car. The car was bone stock including factory tires and air pressures. All runs done in comfort suspension setting, … CONTINUED

June 4, 2012
With Summer at our doorstep, bright and sunny colors dominate the fashion scene. There's one bold hue in particular that always makes a return year after year. Tara Wheeler went to Spring Street on the Downtown Mall to find out how to best wear the turquoise trend.
"Turquoise is the color of the moment and it's great because it looks good with a tan. It looks good with every skin tone and every hair color," says Cynthia Schroeder, owner of Spring Street. "We're seeing turquoise in everything from dresses, tunics, scarves, flip flops, and jewelry."
Turquoise is chic as an all-over look; or bold and trendy in a geometric or mosaic pattern.
"Turquoise works well with lots of colors as a predominant color or accent color," explains Schroeder.
Use a statement turquoise accessory to take an outfit from ordinary to extraordinary.
"Just get a little bracelet a pair of earrings try it out see how it goes., " says Schroeder. "Turquoise agrees with everyone. I think that's what's so good about it."
The right hue can even affect your mood.
"It's a bright color but also very earthy. It makes you feel grounded but also very alive," says Schroeder.
The color also has staying power. "It never goes out of style. It looks good on everybody, " explains Schroeder. "The same earrings would probably be good in five years that you would buy today."
It's the color of the moment and a must-have for your summer wardrobe.

First Farmers' Market successful

Kj Ehlers, on the left, and Mary Stanley sold sunflowers, wheat bundles and more at their booth at the Farmers' Market held Sat., August 11 at the Presho City Park. The women organized the event and were happy with the turn out despite having several vendors, including those with garden produce, back out at the last minute. Shoppers found plenty of other items to buy. Many took home fresh ground wheat, sunflowers, jewelry, planters, plants and home-baked goods. Stanley stated she was pleased with the positive feedback received, and they plan to host another market next summer. "We have more ideas to build on for next year," said Stanley.

PATERSON, NJ (April 17, 2013): Malwinder Singh, MD, FACHE, Pulmonology/Critical Care, St. Joseph's Healthcare System, Paterson and Wayne, New Jersey (resident of Franklin Lakes), has been accepted as a Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE), the nation's leading professional society of healthcare leaders.
"Because healthcare management ultimately affects the people in our communities, it is critically important to have a standard of excellence promoted by a professional organization," says Thomas C. Dolan, PhD, FACHE, CAE, president and chief executive officer of ACHE. "By becoming an ACHE Fellow and simultaneously earning board certification from ACHE, healthcare leaders can show that they are committed to providing high-quality service to their patients and community."
Fellow status represents achievement of the highest standard of professional development. In fact, only 9,100 healthcare executives hold this distinction. To obtain Fellow status, candidates must fulfill multiple requirements, including passing a comprehensive examination, meeting academic and experiential criteria, earning continuing education credits and demonstrating professional/community involvement. Fellows are also committed to ongoing professional development and undergo recertification every three years.
